How To Split An Atom: How To Understand The Technorati Outage

  • Ian Kallen · 2 years ago
    There was a serious of unfortunate database losses that hit part of our infrastructure. No data was lost in this incident but for some of the last several days we did have indexing suspended for about 7% of the blogosphere while this was shaken out. Things are recovering now and there's a large back-log of indexing tasks queued up, it's working itself out.

    Sorry about the grief this may have brought you.

    Ian, I am just happy that you took the time out of your (I'm sure) increasingly busy day to tell everyone about this. Thanks again for the news.

    Glad to hear that things are starting to get on track now.
